Unveiling the Magic: Our Enchanted Family Getaway at Universal Orlando Resorts



Our recent trip to Universal Orlando Resorts was nothing short of magical. From the moment we stepped foot into the enchanting atmosphere of the Lowes Royal Pacific Resort, we knew we were in for an extraordinary experience. 


Nestled amidst lush surroundings, the resort exuded elegance and charm. Our spacious suite comfortably accommodated our family of five, providing us with a luxurious retreat after exhilarating days at the parks. The resort's pristine pools and convenient boat transportation added an extra layer of convenience and enjoyment to our stay, while the entertaining boat conductors regaled us with stories along the way.


One of the highlights of our stay was the complimentary Universal Express Unlimited bracelets, a perk of staying at a premier resort. Skipping the regular lines for most rides allowed us to make the most of our time, experiencing all the thrills and attractions at our own pace.


Our adventure truly began when we entered the gates of Universal Studios. As avid Harry Potter fans, stepping into The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Diagon Alley felt like stepping into the pages of J.K. Rowling's beloved books. From sipping Butterbeer in various forms to experiencing the magic of Ollivanders, every moment was a delight for both kids and adults alike.







The seamless transition between parks with our park-to-park tickets allowed us to explore every corner of Universal's expansive universe. Boarding the Hogwarts Express and journeying to Hogsmeade Station was a highlight in itself, leading us to thrilling adventures at the Universal Islands of Adventure.


Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure and The Hulk roller coaster were definite favorites among our family's thrill-seekers, while the immersive atmosphere of each themed area left us awe-struck at every turn.


No visit to Universal Orlando Resorts would be complete without a day of fun in the sun at Volcano Bay. Renting a cabana added a touch of luxury to our waterpark experience, allowing us to relax in style while enjoying the park's exhilarating rides and attractions.



As our days came to an end, Universal CityWalk beckoned with its vibrant atmosphere and array of dining and shopping options. Indulging in extravagant milkshakes at the Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feats Kitchen was the perfect way to conclude our unforgettable vacation.




In retrospect, our trip to Universal Orlando Resorts was more than just a vacation – it was a journey filled with laughter, excitement, and cherished memories that will last a lifetime. From the enchanting world of Harry Potter to the thrilling rides and impeccable hospitality, it's safe to say that Universal Orlando Resorts has truly captured our hearts. Until next time, Hogwarts awaits!

Ahoy, fellow adventurers! Gather 'round for a yarn that'll leave you chuckling and shaking your head in disbelief. Set sail with us on a Virgin Voyages Cruise, where our voyage of celebration turned into a comedy of errors – and wins – that we'll never forget. Picture this: hammocks swaying on balconies, the gentle sea breeze caressing our faces, and laughter echoing through the ship. It was the perfect setting for our 20-year anniversaries – until the misadventures began. As the ladies relaxed in our balcony hammocks, soaking in the sun and scenery, the menfolk decided to try their luck at the casino's craps table. Little did we know, this decision would lead to a series of hilarious events that would go down in cruise folklore. Enter Ryan, my dear husband, in need of a restroom break. Now, this wasn't your ordinary ship lavatory – it was a labyrinth of confusion with its sink-on-entry setup and a single, solitary toilet behind a menacing door. But Ryan, ever the i

There are few experiences as memorable as getting inked with a view of the vast ocean stretching out before you. My sister and I recently embarked on a journey with Virgin Voyages, and we knew right away that we wanted to commemorate our adventure with matching tattoos. And where better to do it than on a ship that celebrates the freedom of the open sea? As soon as we stepped foot on the ship, we made a beeline for the Squid Ink tattoo parlor. With spots filling up quickly, we didn't want to miss our chance. The anticipation only added to the excitement of what was to come. We quickly learned that scheduling our tattoo session for the night before disembarkation was crucial, especially if we wanted to take a dip in the ocean during our trip.

We could choose from their designs or work with the artists to cr

It was a trip filled with laughter, tears, and countless unforgettable moments that will forever hold a special place in our hearts.
